The Tether App

During the night, everyone's phone or other network device has been updated with a new app - The Tether - intended for helping new arrivals find Tethers.

Unfortunately for those who don't want to participate, the prompt for the application will keep popping up on their screen until they fill out the mandatory fields and post their profile. If you don't want to participate, it might be best to fill in the blanks with prank answers!

Once posted, the app creates a profile that looks like this:

	The Witch
«		»
	Age: ageless Gender: female Interests: three interests About: 30 words or less
	base code by photosynthesis
	Tian
	« ✘ ✔ »

It is a simple swiping type app like many dating apps, swipe left to ignore a profile, swipe right to initiate an instant messenger conversation with the person in question on the app's proprietary chat program, complete with emojis!

NOTE: This meme is game canon.

[She can't help a little giggle. Laughter is almost always contagious as far as she's concerned.]

Well, I didn't used to. Now I do.

[Her own voice is a little high-pitched with a strong Brooklyn-type accent.]

That's cool. Whoa. I'm cool.

I guess that's why the little guy had a broom when I had a javelin. I gave him a spear though. Guess I could kit people out as much as I wanted, huh?

[songmother]

Who can say? I imagine you can do exactly that, and more, in time.

So… tell me about this hyena of yours. I am… curious. They are rather cute and misunderstood creatures.

[nutbuckets]

Whoa, what more stuff d'you think I could do?

Oh, he was the cutest! His name was Bruce, after this real handsome guy in the city I lived in, and I used to give him treats. I fed a guy to him once, because he was askin' to be paid in sex. Gross. But Brucey was worth it, best pet I ever had.

[songmother]

I imagine anything you set your mind to, with a little support.

I’m sorry that happened to you, Harley. Though I’m glad you got a companion out of it at least.

[Debating if it was too forward and deciding the whole concept of tethering made the idea of being too personally invasive entirely a moot point.]

Men do not get to treat women this way, where I come from. They rarely try and when they do they are immediately held accountable.

[nutbuckets]

Oh it was no big deal, really. I know how to take care of myself. It's why I don't need Mister J anymore, I'm a free woman now.

Wow really? That must be a great place to live. Men treat women like shit where I come from.
